Most of our beliefs that surround reincarnation are rather folly when you think about it. We project our human experience upon the universe, then imagine said universe gives us back ''lessons'' and opportunities for ''growth''. There's also a pyramid implied, often from one species to the next, as well as one human life to the next. It is assumed we learn ''lessons'', gain ''power'', and ''grow'' but it all seems so whimsical, and a very poorly written script..
Why do we assume there's some kind of ''progress'' in all of this..? Some sort of ''meaning''? As far as I'm concerned there really is none. Reincarnation is meaningless and random..
And think about this... When you look at an animal, provided there is health and freedom, there is no suffering. Without a developed mind or mind there's also no need for any conceptualizations about ''suffering'', ''lessons'' or anything else. They simply are, and then humans say one must go beyond the mind. Perhaps they all ought to incarnate as animals, that way they will be beyond mind..
